A curry-and-beer place you can drop by from lunch

“Curry and Beer Tasogare Lily” in Uchidabashi, Minami Ward, Nagoya, is a place that stays open straight through from 12:00 on Saturdays and Sundays. Located inside the Uchidabashi shopping street, this small counter-centered shop lets you enjoy spice curry and craft beer from lunchtime.

As the name suggests, the shop revolves around curry and beer. Public information says that, in addition to spice curry, it also offers handmade tacos on corn tortillas, snacks, and spice spirits. Even as an easygoing daytime drinking spot, it is designed so you can fully enjoy both food and alcohol.

The day's pour changes with 3 draft taps

A major feature of the shop is that it serves craft beer on three draft taps. In past visit reports, Numazu Craft's “Baikamo IPA,” Uchu Brewing's “Mystic Veil,” and “Uchu Relax” appeared, making it a lineup that beer fans would want to keep an eye on for rotating selections.

“Baikamo IPA” is introduced as an IPA with a memorable balance of citrus aroma and bitterness. Uchu Brewing, meanwhile, is treated as a special label you can only encounter when it happens to be in stock, and one of the charms of the shop is that you can drink along with its curry depending on the style, from hazy, rich flavors to refreshing ones.

The atmosphere of the shopping street and carefully made plates

Tasogare Lily's appeal is not limited to its beer selection. The two-curry platter is colorful, and with the sides included, the dish has a high level of completeness, naturally enhancing the harmony between spice aromas and beer. As a shop run by a couple who moved from Shizuoka to Nagoya, its atmosphere also leaves an impression, with friendliness and care coexisting.

Because it stays open straight through from Saturday to Sunday afternoon, it is easy to use both for a late lunch and for a drink during a stroll through the shopping street. It would also be perfectly reasonable to come specifically for the craft beer lined up on tap while making curry the star of the visit.
